Nebfanatic Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 the reason we don't have adequate testing is because it would hurt Trumps reelection chances. And we aren't supposed to call into question Trumps response to this?? 5 1 Link to comment

RedDenver Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 I also posted this in the other covid-19 thread This article has a ton of data and charts along with some major takeaways. It's intended for politicians and community leaders, but I think gives a good account of what to expect and what to do: Coronavirus: Why You Must Act Now Quote When you’re done reading the article, this is what you’ll take away: The coronavirus is coming to you. It’s coming at an exponential speed: gradually, and then suddenly. It’s a matter of days. Maybe a week or two. When it does, your healthcare system will be overwhelmed. Your fellow citizens will be treated in the hallways. Exhausted healthcare workers will break down. Some will die. They will have to decide which patient gets the oxygen and which one dies. The only way to prevent this is social distancing today. Not tomorrow. Today. That means keeping as many people home as possible, starting now. 2 Link to comment
funhusker Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Well, Elkhorn is closed until 3/23... We have no positive tests though. There was a poster here talking about an Elkhorn South student on Tuesday, looks like that was just a rumor with the kids... Link to comment

No positive tests doesn’t mean anything if people don’t get tested. 3 Link to comment

We have several students in self quarantine. Someone here said one of those students tested positive. That isn’t true. But I was talking to a coworker during lunch duty, there is no way there at least at handful of kids aren’t positive and just don’t know it. Link to comment
